End of the year Wrap-Up!

1/1/15

It's actually been a very productive year on my little blog! Here are the stats:

Paper Reviews: Just one, but those notebooks were pretty cool.

Pen Reviews: 16 of them! I didn't think I'd done that many, but it appears that I did. Not all of them were fountain pens, but most of them were. I've still got several in the collection that need to be featured soon (Franklin-Christoph 27, I'm lookin' at you!).

Ink Reviews: This has been my focus since the beginning, and there were 73 of them posted this last year. That's including complete sets from Sailor, Caran d'Ache, Faber-Castell, and Anderson Pens.

Thanks, also, to those who have sent me things to review. In alphabetical order:

Anderson Pens: Brian and Lisa are some of our favorite pen people, and I'm really grateful to them for supporting my ink-dependence over the last few months. They're a literal Mom & Pop (& Dave) shop, their selection is awesome, and their shipping is fast and inexpensive. Check them out, if you haven't already.

Pen Boutique: I've only done one review with them, but I hope that we'll work together again in the near future.

Jet Pens: Elaine over at Jet Pens has been fantastic to work with, and everyone should go check out that site for all kinds of pens, crafting products, and things you can't find at any other place in the US.

Thanks, also, to my awesome readers. Thousands of you visit my blog every month, and that's really awesome. I hope to continue bringing y'all back all year.

An even bigger THANK YOU goes out to Michelle and Serge. These two awesome folks have joined the blog through Patreon. Their willingness to become the patron of a blogger they've never met is really great. Even a dollar or two a month can really make a difference to the efforts of a little ole blogger like me.

Oh, and I have to thank the guys over at Franklin-Christoph. Looking forward to another year of exciting stuff from them. I can't wait to see their new set-up.

Thanks to all of you, and I hope you all have an excellent year in the making!
